(A) At least seven days prior to the commencement of a proposed period of peddling, hawking, transient vending, itinerant merchandising, solicitation or gratuitous distribution, no person proposing such activity shall fail to apply at the Village Hall for a certificate of registration. Applicants shall be prepared to furnish, on a form provided, such information as may be required by the Board of Trustees in order to establish the reliability, character, and accountability to the applicant, as well as the exact nature of the proposed activity and its proposed extent and duration. The form of application shall include a clause consenting to independent verification of the applicant's statements, and a clause agreeing to abide by the terms and regulations prescribed in this chapter and by the terms of any license issued thereunder.
(B) In the case of religious, charitable, benevolent, philanthropic, patriotic, political, or eleemosynary organizations, of social and service organizations organized within the village, and of village residents, the requirement in division (A) above that applications be submitted at least seven days prior to the proposed activity may be waived, but all other requirements set forth in division (A) above shall be observed.
(C) Applications for registration shall be considered on their merits, with due consideration for the rights of residents to peaceful enjoyment of privacy, to avoidance of environmental pollution (visual, olfactory, and auditory), to frequency and prevalence of similar activity, and to the character and reliability of applicants. Where it appears that the proposed activity would be inconsistent with the policy stated in § 115.02, or otherwise patently detrimental to the public interest, registration shall be denied. Otherwise, registration shall be granted, subject to the terms of this chapter.
(D) Registration shall be evidenced by a certificate to applicants within the purview of division (B) above, and by issuance of a license to all others. Certificates and licenses shall state the particulars in each case. Licenses shall also stipulate the names of all persons who it is proposed will operate thereunder. Sufficient copies of any such license shall be furnished to each licensee to provide each of his agents and employees, so engaged, with a copy thereof. The term of registration and license shall be for 30 days, with renewal as provided in § 115.05 (D).
